A dog is a mammal for the following reasons:
- It feeds its young on mother's milk - this is the primary reason, and the one, single thing that all mammals share.
- The young are born live, and not hatched (although there are three species of egg-laying mammals, in the group known as monotremes)
- It has hair/fur and skin (rather than scales or feathers)
- It is warm-blooded
- It breathes through lungs
- It is a vertebrate (that means it has a backbone)
